Electric Radiator Fan Upgrade

Electric Radiator Fan Upgrade
I have been looking for an electric radiator fan for my 1982 5.0 4 core radiator. I am having trouble finding the right size. I measured the core of my radiator ( 20" tall by 28" wide). I am hoping for a new fan and shroud combination, but if I can find an electric fan to fit properly in the stock shroud and do its job correctly that would be fine.
Has any found one before?
How much cfm should I look for? ( I have done some performance modifications to the motor)
How much cfm did the stock fan put out?
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

I am not sure what everyone else has done, but I know you have to upgrade to the "3G" alternator. The electric fans will draw too many amps on the stock alternator and possibly drain your battery.
I am not sure of the CFM rating, but I had been given a 1994 Nissan Altima that wasn't running. Long story short it was toast and the rest of the car was trash. I saw an opportunity to grab the elextric fans so I did. I did some quick measuring and I think it will fit my 86' radiator.
